Religion doesn't belong on a football board

[mcbee]

I never understand the extremist Christian view. Basically there's the Bible and all. If you don't believe in it, you're going to hell. But how exactly are you supposed to "make" yourself believe something you don't believe?

I think the answer is you're supposed to be so cowed and afraid that you can't even let a disbelieving thought into your head. Which is why most extreme religious people always seem like they're under intense pressure. Which they of course attribute to the "devil" trying to make them doubt.

But suppose you just don't believe in any of that nonsense? Why would a just God, if there is one, fault you for not believing what you can't believe? I could see him faulting you for ACTIONs like killing raping robbing or mis treating your fellow humans (or animals) but belief isn't really under your control.

I said I was called a name, (bigot), threatened, "this will not be tolerated" implies some sort of authority, banning etc.

Then I said this is an abuse of the PM process. IMO PMs are for communications between people who want to converse, not for name calling and implied threats.

People that don't argue well like to change the argument to suit their side, so I thought I'd put it in black and white.

Ya so I have no idea what you are talking about right nw. My name has nothingto do with anything. It is Adkins not Atkins. Doc Adkins was a pitcher for the Sox int the early 1900's. It's called creativity. And what if I did only eat meat, what does that matter anyway? And your sig is a blatent homosexual joke. I'm not offended by it but stop denying it. Douche.
